This index highlights the laws, regulations, and other references relating to Federal leave programs and policies. The index is a valuable resource for researching major leave subject-matter areas. Please contact your agency personnel office, library, legal office, or information technology office to obtain copies of the documents cited (e.g., laws, regulations, Executive orders, opinions of the Comptroller General (Comp. Gen.)1, etc.). Since each agency is responsible for Federal leave administration, it is imperative that you also consult your agency's internal policies and collective bargaining agreements, as applicable. Also see the leave fact sheets available on OPM's website at http://www.opm.gov/oca/leave/HTML/factindx.asp.
